The midwinter meeting of the EEO Committee traditionally hears
from the Chair of the EEOC. Among the topics Chairwoman Castro will
focus on in her remarks are EEOC's National Enforcement Plan, the
recently announced outreach initiative to small and mid-sized
employers, and the expansion of the agency's National Mediation
Program.

Throughout the conference, which will extend from March 23
through March 27, other Commission members and staff will also
address various topics including compliance issues under the
Americans with Disabilities Act and legal issues in mediating and
arbitrating EEO claims.
